Clipboard unveils iOS app as it takes on Pinterest and Evernote

Here’s the latest from Clipboard, the Seattle Web page clipping startup led by former Microsoft and Yahoo researcher Gary Flake. Today, the company is unveiling new features and a redesign of its site, as well as unveiling a new iOS app that allows users to copy and take clips of pages they visit while surfing with mobile Safari.

“If you do a “long press” on the page, you’ll see a copy rectangle whose borders can be adjusted. When you have the right region selected, hit the “copy” button. Next, switch over to the Clipboard app and press the “heart clip” button that is usually on the upper-right corner. You’ll be able to pick a rich text, plain text, bookmark, or image as your clip. Saving will push the clip to your Clipboard profile in the cloud, which can now be accessed from both the Web and from iOS.”

The company says it is currently working on an Android version of the service.
